Bellagio Blackjack STABBING
Quote: cbsnews.comA fight between two female blackjack dealers at a Las Vegas Strip resort sent one to the hospital and the other to jail.
KSNV-TV reports 50-year-old Brenda Wilson is accused of stabbing the other dealer Friday night in a blackjack pit at the Bellagio hotel-casino.
The incident comes a week after an Illinois man shot and fatally wounded an ex-girlfriend in the hotel lobby at the Excalibur resort on the Strip, then killed himself there.
Wilson was booked into jail on charges of battery with a deadly weapon and mayhem with substantial bodily harm.
Authorities say the victim, whose name wasn't immediately released, was taken to the hospital with deep facial cuts. Her condition was unknown.
Police couldn't confirm whether the two dealers were working at the time.

That says a lot of surveillance and security being Johnny on the spot!
Fifty years old is a little bit old for fighting over such things.Quote: BozDamn tip splitting!!
LVRJ:
"It's right across from The Baccarat Bar, where a piano player can be heard nightly entertaining the visitors and guests who pass by.
The minimum bet inside the pit is $100 and the maximum bet is $1,000."
FOX-TV NEWS:
One is said to be a BJ Dealer and the other is said to be a Poker Dealer.
Perhaps that's it then. No dispute over tip sharing or not pulling your own weight on bringing in tips, just another "domestic situation" that seems to have spilled over into the headlines.
Security acts so that no one notices disturbances and publicity agents act so that no one remembers which casino anything took place at.Quote: aceofspadesThat says a lot of surveillance and security being Johnny on the spot!

The Palms has a shirt that reads "What happened at The Palms, never happened." I always thought it was an O.J. reference.
A player was first and apparently the primary person to restrain the assailant who had a blade in each hand and three more blades in her purse. Dealers had known each other for years but recent developments involved harassing phone calls and the assailant not taking her xanax for anxiety and having requested more drugs to avoid assaultive behavior. Xanax is anti anxiety medicine, not antipsychotic.
